As seen from lodge buildings on A26 Tonbridge Road. Mereworth Castle is a grade I listed Palladian country house in Mereworth, Kent, England. The Wateringbury Stream passes through the grounds of the castle. It powered a fulling mill at the eastern end of the castle grounds. Mereworth Castle is owned by His Excellency Sayed Mohammed Mahdi Al-Tayer, a former Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary in London of the United Arab Emirates, who purchased it in 1976 for $1.2 million. It is not generally accessible to the public, but does open on rare occasions for guided tours. For more details see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mereworth_Castle
